In the context of psychological theories of moral development, regarding Lawrence Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development (comprising three levels: preconventional, conventional, and postconventional, and six stages) and Carol Gilligan's critique through her Ethics of Care (prioritizing empathy, relationships, and responsibility over justice), which of the following statements is most appropriate and true for modern inclusive classroom teaching, value-based education, and moral dilemma strategies?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Lawrence Kohlberg propounded the cognitive-developmental theory of moral development, outlining six stages based on justice and reasoning. On the other hand, psychologist Carol Gilligan argued that Kohlberg's sample was predominantly male, which neglected the moral perspective of women based on care, empathy, and relationships. Therefore, Gilligan proposed the 'Ethics of Care' theory. In modern education, these two theories are complementary rather than contradictory, guiding teachers to foster both justice-oriented and empathetic moral decision-making in children.
